Hi John
Looks like there will be one next May or early June as several sailors have asked. I will post here when dates are firmed up. It would be great to sail with you

Re: 2021 SCAMP Skills Seminar
Hello
I live over in Missoula MT and would definitely attend this event. Not sure if I'll have a Scamp by then but I'm assuming that would be ok. I do have sailing experience.
Thanks,
Sean
Also, If anyone's Scamp needs a new home let me know. I am looking.
